Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt ¼ cup (55g) of the butter.
- Once melted, add the ½ cup (120g) of brown sugar and stir until combined and the sugar has dissolved.
- Pour this caramel mixture into the bottom of a greased baking dish.
- Slice the banana into thin rounds and arrange them on top of the caramel mixture in the baking dish. Set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the remaining ¼ cup (55g) of butter until creamy.
- Add the 3 eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition until the mixture is smooth.
- Sift together the ¾ cup (90g) of all-purpose flour and ½ cup (72g) of self-raising flour.
- Gradually add the sifted flours to the butter mixture, alternating with the ½ cup (120g) of water. Mix until just combined.
- Roughly chop the ⅓ cup (40g) of hazelnuts and fold them into the batter.
- Carefully spoon the batter over the caramelised bananas in the baking dish, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the pudding comes out clean.
- Allow the pudding to cool in the baking dish for about 10 minutes.
- Run a knife around the edge of the dish to loosen the pudding.
- Invert the pudding onto a serving plate so the caramelised bananas are on top.
- Serve warm and enjoy your delicious caramelised banana upside-down pudding!
Tips:
- Ensure the butter is at room temperature before starting, as it will be easier to work with.
- Use ripe bananas for the best flavor and natural sweetness in your pudding.
- Toast the hazelnuts before adding them to the batter to enhance their flavor and crunch.
- Make sure the brown sugar is evenly sprinkled over the banana slices to create a smooth caramelised layer.
- Allow the pudding to cool slightly before inverting it onto a serving plate to avoid it falling apart.
- You can add a touch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter for a bit of spice.
